Loudmouth activist fails miserably...

"We've seen protests all across the country after police officers have been accused of shooting people who aren't armed.

But what would happen if one of those protesters looked at what it's like to wear a badge, and be put in a life or death situation.

Jarrett Maupin has been very vocal during the recent protests, leading marches on the Phoenix Police headquarters after officers shot an unarmed man who reportedly fought with them.

He and FOX 10's Troy Hayden agreed to go through a force on force training with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office and went through three scenarios where you have to decide to shoot, or not to shoot.

In the first scenario, both the activist and the media guy get blasted;

in the second, both shoot an unarmed assailant;

in the third, a semi-compliant subject has a hidden knife, but no one got shot

Both are completely surprised in scenario #1. Both hesitate to the point of suicide in scenario #2. The activist is seen on camera poking the crap out of the semi-compliant guy with his gun in scenario #3, behavior that is frowned upon by most Departments.

This community activist should then sit down with a judge and review the shoot / don't shoot scenarios. The judge can explain the Graham use of force factors, maybe (but probably not) the activist would actually learn something based in reality.
